Dutch term or phrase: borglus

De borst- en heupzakken zijn voorzien van 2 borglussen.

Ik weet echt niet wat ik me hierbij moet voorstellen. Een lus om iets op te bergen? Zo'n lusje waar je je sleutels aan kunt bevestigen? Binnenin de zak of er buitenop? Alle ideeen welkom.

d-rings

Explanation:
Could they mean 'd-rings'. These are rings that are attached to a garment to which you can attach keys or small tools (depending on the size of the ring). Look at the jacket on the reference page I provided.

Although in Dutch the word 'lus' generally refers to something of a fabric nature and not metal.
